Beijing (Gasgoo)- Chinese automotive chip developer SemiDrive and renowned global semiconductor manufacturer ROHM have jointly developed a reference design called "REF66004" for intelligent cockpits.
The reference design primarily covers SemiDrive's intelligent cockpit SoC products, the "X9M" and "X9E," which are equipped with ROHM's PMIC, SerDes IC, and LED driver products. Additionally, a reference board based on this design, named "REF66004-EVK-00X," is also provided, consisting of a Core Board, SerDes Board, and Display Board.
SemiDrive and ROHM initiated technical exchanges in 2019 and established a cooperative relationship focused on the development of intelligent cockpit-related applications. SemiDrive's X9 series intelligent cockpit products cover a wide range of cabin application scenarios, including instrument clusters, IVI systems, cabin domain control, and integrated cabin & parking systems. With a production volume in the million-unit level and extensive experience in mass production, SemiDrive's intelligent cockpit solutions have a mature ecosystem.
In this latest collaboration, ROHM and SemiDrive have jointly developed the "REF66004" reference design based on the in-vehicle SoCs, "X9M" and "X9E," with the aim of expanding its application in entry-level cockpits and beyond. The solution can drive up to three displays and support four ADAS or surround-view cameras.
